Research Abstract |
To develop the cylindrical balloon catheter as a new therapeutic device for aortic dissection, prototype model was made, however it is now difficult to apply in experimental study. We are now discussing the improvement of this prototype model. Simultaneously, to apply this device for aortic dissection, we performed the experiment to develop a model of an aortic dissection in swine. The aortic dissection was successfully created in swine with endovascular methods, confirmed with contrast enhanced coan-beam computed tomography and correlated with histopathological observation.
